Game Informer's Ignorance About TF2 - Games

[QUOTE=Be Polite,;30683163]Billy Mays at the same time.[/QUOTE] :saddowns:

I hear there's a new comic out called MAD. It makes a lot of parodies of pop culture things like that one new movie Star Wars.

[QUOTE=latin_geek;30690105][IMG]http://media1.gameinformer.com/imagefeed/featured/valve/team-fortress2/tf2610.jpg[/IMG] What game is this Is this that chinese TF2 ripoff? I mean, no one is brandishing a hat (or a completely random [I]thing[/I]) on their head, and they all have the stock weapons! Even more, there's not a single trade request in the chat![/QUOTE] I miss that game...

Game Informer informs the stupid about stuff they probably heard on the Internet a few weeks ago. Only time they had something interesting is when they exclusively had information about Portal 2.

This is just beyond sad.

HOLY SHIT THE WTC's WERE HIT.

It sounds like they're trying to be sensionalist.

I miss when gaming magazines were still relevant. :sigh: Especially old Tips and Tricks, EGM and GameNow. Game Informer used to be good, but after EB/GameStop took over it went downhill.

Game Informer needs someone to inform [b]them[/b] about games.

So I heard Valve's now accepting items from the community. Ha, it'll never last.

Hey guys! Just trying out this new "internet" thing. It's pretty amazing! [editline]1[/editline] Okay maybe I shoulda posted this first.

Wow, I just found a screenshot for valves new Team Fortress game. [img]http://www.planetfortress.com/tf2/gameinfo/screenshots/italy2.jpg[/img] It's sure to be a great sequel to Team Fortress Classic, right?

Hey guys. . .Did you hear?, the U.S Army just dropped an atomic bomb on japan, Gee wilikers that's good news

Gameinformer is hilariously biased towards consoles and their reviews are AWFUL. They gave The Witcher 2 a 9.5, even though the reviewer hated almost EVERYTHING about the game. How did it get a 9.5? "It had gud graphix" Never trust their journalism, the only thing they are good for is cover art, the occasional free poster, and information you heard of 4 weeks ago.

[QUOTE=Noth;30697394]The exception that proves the rule.[/QUOTE]I don't think that's an actual argument. Evidence to the contrary of a hypothesis does not support the hypothesis.

Perhaps Gameinformer is run by mentaly disabled people? You know, to give them a chance to fulfill thei'r dream of being game reviewers? sure looks like that.

More like LateInformer if you ask me.

Next: Meet the Director comic.

So, I decided to take a look at the comments to maybe see if there are people suggesting that the article was wrong. There were a few, but I also found these: [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZvGjU.png[/img] [img]http://imgur.com/aY0G4.png[/img] [img]http://i.imgur.com/0UDde.png[/img] [img]http://imgur.com/EutU2.png[/img] Where can I buy a very large gun?

[QUOTE=overdark;30701818]I rated optimistic because I really hope one day we'll be able to play that game again :([/QUOTE] It would have gotten boring after about 4 and a half years at this point. I embraced the new weapons, but I admit they went overboard with "customizing"

[QUOTE=CakeMaster7;30701994]And [I]this[/I] my friends is exactly why I read PC Gamer.[/QUOTE] They rated Dragon Age 2 too high and Terraria too low, but generally they're spot-on with their numbers.
